—Due to the half-duplex property of the underwater acoustic channels, the classic stop-and-wait ARQ (SW-ARQ) and its variants are generally thought to be the only class of ARQ pr...
— Unlike terrestrial networks that mainly rely on radio waves for communications, underwater networks utilize acoustic waves, which have comparatively lower loss and longer range...
—Underwater acoustic channel usually has low data rate, long propagation delay, severe multipath effect, and time varying fading. Cooperative transmission is a new wireless commu...
—Underwater Sensor Networks are typically distributed in nature and the nodes communicate using acoustic waves over a wireless medium. Such networks are characterized by long and...
— Reliable transmission is a challenging task over wireless links because wireless channels are susceptible to noise and interference. To address this problem various error contr...
